THE STORY:

Abbey belongs to a friend of mine - she is a beautiful, sweet 9 year-old pooch who was just recently diagnosed with Lymphoma. Her family is devastated, and is trying desperately to save her life. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy at MIchigan State University, and has a good chance of beating this cancer if she can complete her entire treatment. However, because of this dreadful economy, Abbey's family has suffered job losses and just cannot afford the expense of the life-saving chemotherapy. They are being sponsored by The Magic Bullet Fund, which helps needy families financially in their fight against canine cancer. However, Abbey's family still needs to raise funds of their own - and currently needs to raise $900. So please - help me help this family give Abbey a fighting chance. Help give them the only gift they're wishing for this holiday season - the life of their beloved pet. No amount is too little!

Canine cancer sucks. Having just dealt with canine cancer in our own family, this cause is especially dear to me. I know how devastating it is to get that diagnosis, and I understand the hopelessness that goes with it - and feeling like it's the end of the world, and that you're just going to have to stand back and watch your best friend die. Except that it's not the end of the world. Abbey has a real chance at beating this, but she needs your help. This treatment can save her life. We can do this. Please help! Thank you...

(The Magic Bullet Fund is a DBA of The Perseus Foundation, Inc., who is graciously accepting the donations for this family and their beloved pooch).
